My dad passed 8 years ago and took all of his &quot;growing up in NY in the 1920s and &#39;30s&quot; tales that I never tired of hearing with him; I miss him - and them - more than I can say. You should get your dad/grandfather on videotape reminiscing so that when he is no longer here, you can still see him and hear his voice as he remembers...

This guy has as much worth as any other human who mouth breathes in this neaighborhood, on Sixth Street or on this planet for that matter. He may have led a great life, he may not have. I have no idea. God bless the guy, but his presence does not detract from the contribution of any other person in this or any other neighborhood, be they renters, owners, teens or octogenarians. Enough with the comparing the worth of humans garbage.
